Stellar 14′ Touring Kayak (S14 HV)Designed for larger paddlers (220 lbs plus), the S14HV provides a fun platform for bigger paddlers who cannot find a performance boat for their size. The primary features of this boat are stability, oversized cockpit and wider seat provide comfort for the larger paddler. Entering and exiting this boat is much easier with the larger cockpit. Despite the wider beam and cockpit, the S14HV retains an efficient hull shape. Complete with all the standard outfitting of the classic S14 G2 and the option of adding a rudder youll need to try this exceptional kayak.The second-generation S14 G2 pays homage to the original in its hull shape, but we added some beam to increase the primary stability and a touch of volume for the carrying capacity. You will find this boat retains the smooth efficient feel in the water with updated features above the waterline. A paddle recess behind the cockpit rim, a wider and more functional lock bar and more aggressive cut-aways make for a tighter catch and modern look, plus the convenience of a deck pod makes storing a phone or keys easy. To round out this best seller, we refined the ergonomics of the cockpit and seating position for better rotation and rolling.1: Ergonomic bow & stern handles 2: Water resistant bow hatch3: Compass, GPS or sail mount4: Bungee and static perimeter line5: Water resistant deck pod6: Water bottle holder 7: Large cockpit and seat8: Recess for paddle float rescues9: Large water resistant stern hatch 10: Standard overstern steering option11: Standard skeg to help with tracking12: Stable high capacity designThe S14 G2 comes standard with fittings to upgrade to an overstern rudder as well.Only the Multisport S14 G2 come standard with this rudder already!Length:14 9 / 4.5mBeam:25.6 / 65cmDepth:14 / 35.5cmPaddler:5′ 3-6′ 5/ 1.6m-1.95mCapacity:386lbs / 175kgCockpit Opening Width:18.9 / 48cmCockpit Opening Length:34.9 / 87cmAdvantageWeight:40.3lbs / 18.3kgDescription:Great combination of weight, stiffness, durability and cost.
